Zhang Guoqing got to work as soon as he thought of it.
Once again, he saw Zhang Meili bringing wild vegetables.
He decisively notified everyone to return to their hometown over the weekend; he would take them to the mountains to forage for wild vegetables.
Everyone eagerly waited, and finally, it was the weekend. Before dawn, a gust of wind swept everyone to Zhang Family Village.
Mother Zhang stayed with the women and children at the foot of the mountain to dig for wild vegetables while Zhang Guoqing, along with Mr. Zhang, his two elder brothers, and two brothers-in-law, headed uphill.
At the mountain's base, there were hardly any wild vegetables to pick, not even the newly sprouted ones. The old captain had already ordered the village's elders and youths to harvest them all.
